Question

Statement 1: An aqueous solution of ammonium acetate acts as a buffer solution Statement 2: A buffer solution reacts with small quantities of hydrogen or hydroxyl ions and keeps the pH almost same (A) Statement 1 is True, Statement 2 is True; Statement 2 is correct explanation for Statement 1 (B) Statement 1 is True, Statement 2 is True; Statement 2 is not correct explanation for Statement 1 (C) Statement 1 is True, Statement 2 is False (D) Statement 1 is False, Statement 2 is True

(A) is correct because aqueous solution of salt of

W_{A}

and

W_{B}

acts as buffer
(R) is correct. Buffer resist the change in

p H

on addition of small amount of

S_{A}

or

S_{B}

But it is not the correct explanant of (A)

Statement 1 is True, Statement 2 is True; Statement 2 is correct explanation for Statement 1

Statement 1 is True, Statement 2 is True; Statement 2 is not correct explanation for Statement 1

Statement 1 is True, Statement 2 is False

Statement 1 is False, Statement 2 is True

(A) is correct because aqueous solution of salt of WA​ and WB​ acts as buffer (R) is correct. Buffer resist the change in pH on addition of small amount of SA​ or SB​ But it is not the correct explanant of (A)

Q. Statement 1 : An aqueous solution of ammonium acetate acts as a buffer solution
Statement 2 : A buffer solution reacts with small quantities of hydrogen or hydroxyl ions and keeps the pH almost same

(A) is correct because aqueous solution of salt of $W_{A}$ and $W_{B}$ acts as buffer
(R) is correct. Buffer resist the change in $p H$ on addition of small amount of $S_{A}$ or $S_{B}$
But it is not the correct explanant of (A)
